About Luzardo

Measure your cattle with pictures from your phone, and build the data layer for the livestock industry.

Our Story

Most ranchers don't weigh their cattle. Scales cost thousands, take hours to run, and stress the animals out. Cattle can lose up to 5% of their body weight during a single weighing event. And if you can't weigh consistently, you can't track growth, optimize feed, or time your sales.

The idea was simple: what if a phone camera could replace a scale? We built an AI that estimates cattle weight from a short video or three photos taken from different angles. You point your phone at a cow and get a weight. No chute, no handling, no disruption.

Our team covers computer vision, machine learning, AgTech, and go-to-market. We train our models on thousands of cattle images paired with verified scale weights, and we keep improving accuracy through our pilot program.

Right now we're running on 11 farms, collecting real data and building alongside the ranchers who use the product every day. If something doesn't work in the field, we hear about it and fix it.

The Problem We Solve

Weight drives every major decision on a cattle operation: when to sell, how much to feed, which animals to breed. Without it, ranchers are guessing.

Scales are expensive and break. Running cattle through them takes hours and ties up your crew. The animals get stressed, lose weight from the handling, and occasionally someone gets hurt. Many farmers skip weighing entirely because the hassle isn't worth it.

We turn a smartphone into a scale. Take a short video or three photos, get a weight estimate in seconds. You can weigh more often, with less work, and the cattle never know it happened.

Our Technology

Under the hood, our AI combines convolutional neural networks and transformer models to estimate an animal's volume and weight from images. We have two modes: phone-only and phone plus a compact accessory we provide, both around 95% accurate. Both run on any iPhone or Android.

The platform does more than weigh. Each animal gets a timeline that tracks every weigh-in and event from birth to sale. A digital cow passport records origin, weight history, and genetics in a verified record that travels with the animal to buyers and export markets. You can rank your herd by average daily gain, current weight, or breed, and the system tracks illnesses, vaccines, and treatments per animal.
